The Studio

Established in 1971, ™Habeeba’s Dance of the Arts was the first-ever bellydance school in the American Midwest. Today, it is the longest continuously-operating bellydance school in the country.

 

We teach an exclusive technique developed by one of the country’s master instructors – Habeeba, whose sophisticated and authentic style stresses graceful form in movement. Since founding the school, she has taught the dance to thousands of women from ages 13 through 72 and counting. She is recognized internationally as a leader in the development of the art form. Some of Habeeba’s students become professional dancers, while most study the dance for exercise and fun.

 

Throughout the year, Habeeba hosts guest instructors from all over the world who come to Ohio to teach bellydance seminars and workshops. In addition to these special events, instructors at our studio regularly teach classes devoted to specific routines from Habeeba’s own choreography.

 

 

 

The Women’s Activity Center

 

Habeeba is committed to offering women in central Ohio a place to gather and exercise without the expense of a gym membership. That’s why she createdThe Women’s Activity Center in our headquarters studio, where we currently host specialty classes in hoop dance, Bollywood Dance, and Better Body Boot Camp. Often, current students of our bellydance classes may attend these specialty classes at a discounted rate.
